Re: Project: BuTSeX 310 (no vowels)

A second update on the last one, just more pictures.

After tinting the side markers they obviously look like crap because its a rattle can job

So I took out the polisher now that they sat over tonight to cure and buffed them with a polishing compound, normally I would have used a cutting compound but I only did two coats and I didn't want to risk taking any tint away so this is after just polishing, nothing else.

And now just more lighting pictures.

Both yellow running lights, reflectors reflecting off the yellow bulbs.

Running lights

Running lights and fogs

Running lights, fogs, and tinted side markers

Now I just have to figure out how to wire in dual filiment bulbs for the signals in the headlight housing so I can swap the running lights to the signals and a T10 socket within the existing running light reflector, and then quad highbeams utilizing the 65w running light bulbs that are only running at 15w (because they're DRLs)

My fuel consumption has also been reduced since the exhaust job, its already paying for itself, getting something like 550km a tank as opposed to 475km a tank and I'm not pushing it, just standard driving.

I've always loved watching the little mods you do to your cars that seem to make a really big difference at the end of the day. Subtle things like slightly tinted side markers just help the overall darker theme of your car. I dig it.

Re: Project: BuTSeX 310 (no vowels)

Thanks buddy, where's the Jetta thread at? I wanna see your work making it low and that retrofit.

More of an update I guess? I'm bored so I'm just tinkering.
The left side marker hasn't worked since I got the car so I figure, it can't get any worse right? So I popped it out again, put the heat gun on it for about 30 seconds on full power.
